*.tar.gz files are. Zipped (the .gz) and Tar'd so it's a 2 step process.

Basically TAR is a grouping of the files and GZ is the compression.

Check out 7-zip:

http://www.7-zip.org/

Un-Gzip the file you have a *.tar file. Un-Tar the file and you have all the files.
[Nook Color General] cfsteak:
YES! Thanks

I had tried to winrar and bitzipper them twice but the file was useless

But with 7-zip Ive got a img. file, seems like all the instructions I've been following said uncompress but I guess the assume that you know to do both

Now I can get on with my next nightmare getting this NC back to stock

Thank you

[Atrix 4G General] Gene_Bailey:
I just got my new Motorola Atrix but my AT&T dealer line isn't active yet so I don't have a sim card that is provisioned. I hooked it up to wifi and Motoblur keeps giving me a "Motoblur is Busy" error message so I can't even access my old motoblur account or make a new one >.< Please if anyone has any idea whats wrong help me out!

I tried to access the Motoblur website from a computer and it said it's umder construction.. does anyone know how to bypass the setup stuff so I can at least set up my gmail and get apps???

[Atrix 4G General] Gene_Bailey:
First off thank you for the prompt reply. I tried that website but everytime I time I try and have it send me a password reset email it doesn't pop up in my gmail. Also even more confusing is that it won't let me set up a new account. It keeps saying server error..

Any ideas? The fact that I can't get past this one screen is REALLY frustrating lol

I had a heck of a time setting up my wifes. Just kept trying and it finally went through.

Thanks all I got it working. It was my old motoblur account. For some reason I couldn't use it, and I couldn't set up a new account under the same email account either. They also wouldn't send the email to reset the password either..

So I just created a new account with a new email and it synced just fine :D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rotaryknight:
Ever since I flashed to 2.2 nerov4, and now bionix from stock back in january, everytime I connect my phone to the pc to transfer music, or data, I go into the stock musicplayer and in my recently added list, it has all the songs on my memory card listed, instead of the tracks I just added.

In stock, it works. But the custom rom always list all music as recently added. Is there a fix for this?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sdobron:
Works fine for me...using the touchwiz music player? Try disabling the display for recently added tracks, close the program, and then re-enable it. See if that fixes your problem.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rotaryknight:
I tried what you suggested and no luck. Its the touchwiz version
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rotaryknight:
I just tried winamps recently added playlist also and its the same thing. It shows all my music as recently added when after disconnecting from pc. I added 10 songs and it still doesnt show up

[Captivate General] Clyzm:
Looks like the i9000 Gingerbread ROM was leaked just recently according to Engadget. Very interesting.

I wonder how hard this is to port to the captivate.
[Captivate General] sarcasmo:
Sounds promising. I don't really anticipate getting another update via AT&T (unless it locks something down). Still, I wouldn't mind running a Gingerbread rom for the i9000 - assuming minimal tradeoffs. I'm sure some of the great devs on this board will think about a port for the Captivate.

Of course, Samsung will make a lot of people happy if they release an official Captivate ROM via carriers in a timely manner. They could use some more happy customers.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Ok guys there have been tons of threads about this already this morning. Have a look in the DEV section.

[General Questions and Answers] mike.m:
i have downloaded a Rom named IncRom_1.1 via Rom manager app it works fine and i like it. The only issue is that i wanted to download a new Rom but i cant install it. It will download with no problems and it will begin to install but just before it is done installing it just reboots and my current Rom is still there can someone help me. Im still kinda new to this whole thing my mobile device is the Droid Incredible thanks in advance
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeX_DK:
HTC has announced they will be releasing a Gingerbread update to the original Desire. My present Desire is currently rooted and S-OFF'ed, so I know I wont get the OTA notification because my phone doesn't match up. But will I be able to download the OTA package and then do a manual update or will that one stop because my phone doesn't match?

Would an Unroot be enough or would I need to restore the Security to its On position again in order to be able to update either way?. And what about the apps I removed, would I have to readd these or what?.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madd0g:
A rooted ROM will be posted in a day, so you will easily just flash that.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eden2812:
If you really want official GB that badly, unroot, and return to stock - then only is it totally safe to use the official update ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1ch:
Agreed, but that would only be a good idea if you plan to stay unrooted!

If you want to run a custom rom, there is no reason to return to stock!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeX_DK:
At this moment I dont have any use or desire for a custom rom. All I actually want is get the new GB update from HTC when it comes out. Just not sure I can do that without a lot of hassle considering my phone is presently rooted, has S-OFF and i removed apps.

Unless all the apps will return when I unroot?. But in essence it wont really mattter as my Desire would be laying in a drawer somewhere at that point anyway :P. When I get my new phone my Desire is getting retired, much the same way my G1 was retired when I got my Desire.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] churro7:
Does it bring battery life savings?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nullghost:
Short answer: yes with a small note.

Long answer: RFS (stock file system) isn't all that great. In theory, Ext4 should write to disk much less. Writing to disk takes much more battery juice than reading from disk, so you should save a bit of battery life each time you store something to internal storage.
[Epic 4G General] burgerpimp07:
Since I've upgraded to EB13, my battery usage details for "Display" have been a lot higher than normal, even when the screen is used very conservatively, it seems to always be in the 90%'s. I have my screen brightness locked on the lowest setting. The screen brightness is more than high enough when indoors, even at the lowest setting. Is there a mod or hack to lower it even more?

Before, when on DL18, even when my screen on time was high, "Display" was never in the 90%'s, and "cell stand by" was more than my current 5%, haha.

Please post your "Display" battery usage detail percentage and what android version you are currently on for comparison.

*edit* I am running midNIGHT ROM 4.1 and Genocide EB13 0.3a kernel
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Pretty sure this is a bug. I always have my display set at the highest setting and I am getting like 2-3x less screen on time per battery charge. Not worried about it yet since I have a backup battery, but it is certainly something I will keep an eye on.
[Epic 4G General] Tortel1210:
If your using undervolted kernels, the display will have a higher percentage because the CPU is using less, while the display uses the same.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Its a bug in eb13. The "Battery usage" in the settings always shows my display @ 90%. I don't trust it anymore, cause it is now displaying inaccurate information

Sent from my never been rooted, stock Froyo Epic.
[Epic 4G General] Muckrak3r:
Since eb13, all, mine shows is display and cell standby. No wifi (use it all day) or anything else. Seems to be a useless graphical representation now.
[Epic 4G General] tmuka:
I used to enjoy the decreased brightness kernel for 2.1. I'd love to see that mod in a froyo kernel.

fwiw, I'd also love to see supercurios sound mods...
[Epic 4G General] socos25:
Do you not use your phone for actual calls? Mine shows:

Display 70% - 1h 7m on

Voice Calls 12%, 18m 5s on

Cell Standby 11%, 0% without signal

Phone Idle 5%

WI-FI 1%

This is after 12h 21m unplugged
[Epic 4G General] xxmastermindxx:
Download an app from the market called Screen Filter. Let's you lower brightness a lot more, great when you're in bed or something for example.
[Epic 4G General] iamchocho:
I have noticed this too, I swear its lumping more than just the screen into the "display" category. I use the display at the lowest brightness possible, and even with the screen on for very short periods of time display is usually using 70-90%

I noticed this on DK28 also, seems to be something different in how samsung records battery usage in froyo.

My current time - 16h 50m from unplug @ 100%

DISPLAY - 65% (51 m, 9s)

Cell Standby - 18% (4% TWS)

Phone Idle 9%

Voice Calls - 5% (4m 41s)

Wifi - 4% (1h 58m)

Currently 18% total battery left

No where in here is the several hours of music/podcasts that I listened to at work today accounted for. Seems like our battery meters aren't telling us the whole story.
[Epic 4G General] nicholishen:
+1 screen filter is a great app!
[Epic 4G General] burgerpimp07:
Awesome, that works great with the use of an app.

Would still be nice if the devs incorporated into their kernels for EB13 like they did in DI18 though.
[Fascinate General] W1LLP0W3R:
Not sure if this is the right place, but I just wanted tot say thanks to everyone involved in the fascinate modding scene.

I've recently broken my PC microphone, and being a cheap SOB, I figured I could plug my Galaxy S into my PC via a standard two sided male 3.5mm wire.

I've been looking for an app that could playback audio input straight into speaker/headphone output, much like you can do in most Windows OSes. But I haven't had much luck. Does anyone know of an app that does what I want?

I've never developed for the android before, but I think I should have enough programming experience to make something this simple. Could anyone point me in the right direction, when it comes to APIs to use?

[Desire General] Xrhstos:
Hello people,

some things about me: i aint no expert,i am just the "follow the guide step by step" type of guy.

here goes with my problem,

I flashed oxygen v2.0 and my phone after a manual reboot crashed, i tried to boot but it stuck in the oxygen boot logo 4-5 times.

i opened the recovery (clockwork mod-alpharev 2.5.1.8) and wiped everything out (system-data-dalvik cache-ext partition)also formated the whole sd to fat32.

then when i tried to reflash oxygen 1.0.4 my recovery says that it cant mount sd card.the actuall message i get is " E:cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)"

i have S-OFF and rooted of course,phone is also with oxygen HBOOT.

i tried with 2 diferent cards and with both of them i get the same message.

also both of them are working fine,tested on a laptop card reader.

is it a device HW problem or something that has to do with the wipes i mentioned i did before?

what can i do to bring it back to life??
[Desire General] TheGhost1233:
What happens if you connect the usb? Might be a usb brick.
[Desire General] Xrhstos:
Hi,

when i connect it via usb i can see it in "my device manager" on my pc listed as "android USB devices - My HTC" (fastboot)

in boot loader i can see it listed as "Android phone - Android Bootloader interface"

when im in cwm-alpharev recovery i can see it as "other devices - Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM"

the problem is that i cant mount my sd in recovery to do a NAND restore

the only thing i can do right now is go to fastboot bootloader and cwm-alpharev recovery

any ideas?
[Desire General] TheGhost1233:
Yes, follow the link I gave you.

Skip step one since your still rooted.
[Desire General] Xrhstos:
ok thanks but i am gonna need some more help,

in step 2 it sais to boot into fastboot and enter a command

enter it where?
[Desire General] TheGhost1233:
Terminal or command prompt, make suer you have the sdk tools installed and can use fastboot. If you don't know what it is or how to get it working start here.
[Desire General] Xrhstos:
I LOVE YOU so much right now,

all i did is the 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' to restore SD functionality and then a nand restore.

my desire owns you his life,

thanks alot.

Just curious. I know it's easy to reflash stock recovery, but if the phone shows as 100% full and I power off with it plugged in, the charge light still shows orange in Clockwork Recovery.

Just wondering if I leave it like this overnight if the light will ever turn green?

I think it's just a bug. Maybe it'll be fixed in the next update.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phateless:
If I recall correctly the phone booting to clockwork recovery when charging while off has to do with the PHONE itself, not Koush's work.

I know the phone charges while in "off recovery" but the light shows orange even when the phone was already full.

What I really wanted to know is if the light will ever turn green.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elloco305:
It does charge while in recovery. But I've had occurances where the phone's batter icon is no longer 'charging' as in being animated. But it in fact is still charging. It stops charging untill the 'Bolt' icon dissapears.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] se1000:
Right, and I don't believe it charges in clockworkmod recovery. It sounded like Elloco305 was talking about stock recovery because unless I missed something, CWM recovery doesn't have any kind of bolt icon.

I mean CWM.

I've charged in CWM Recovery. It does charge.

It does while in CWM

And the battery icon with the 'Bolt' is on the ROM/Stock/CM/IG/etc.

I'm sorry for not making sense earlier. >.<

BTW what version of CWM do you have installed? Because 2.5.1.2 Gives no LED function. At all.

Neither does 3.0.0.5
